Kerbs joins Randy & Brooke to talk about the way that depth has changed in the NHL over the last few seasons, the no-good very-bad weekend, failing to take advantage of the schedule, the lack of toughness in puck battles, always chasing the puck throughout the games, whether or not we will start to see accountability from this team, the need to get to a plus differential before anything else and the need to answer the big questions--"What does it take for this team to win?"
